Really? You'd honestly pass if someone offered you $67 to eat a Big Mac? $67 can buy a few nice healthy dinners to make up for that Big Mac.

I don't eat McDonald's food except on occasion, but if it were FREE and no one was paying me to eat it, I'd still stop in a couple of times a month.

Aren't these cheeseburgers like a dollar more usually? I wonder how many people will line up for a long time today to save $1 on a burger made out of orange peels and chinese newspapers lol

Are you vegetarian/vegan or just won't eat McDonalds? How about In 'n' Out?

I'm curious about the reasons a person may have to pass up $67 to eat one hamburger (not to start eating them again). If it's for health reasons, one hamburger in the big scheme of things is essentially a non-issue. If it's for a social consciousness issue, then it makes more sense.

When those were pretty new I remember seeing an ad for them at my brother in laws house, I said something like "I'd punch myself in the balls before I'd eat that thing". The next day he shows up at our place with a sack full of them...f*ckin' comedian.

I think you are overthinking this, haha. I'm not vegetarian, I love both meat and vegetables. I won't eat in and out either because I find their burgers to be gross.

$67 just isn't worth it to me to ingest mcdonalds. Shrug.

Can't even touch McDonald's food. Their breakfast is the worst. If I'm just going for ice cream, then maybe... but even then, I'd probably go elsewhere.

Other places have gotten more expensive over the years, like BK, Carls Jr etc. For like $2 more than what I'd spend there, I can go to good burger place like G Burger or Umami Burger.

The only good thing about In N Out is that it's slightly better than some of the other fast food places, but still cheaper.

Has anybody here tried the $0.67 burger? I'm actually curious what that would taste like.

The only thing I can stand from McDonald's is their Oreo McFlurries since it's a bit of a guilty pleasure for me.

Gotcha - you just dislike it THAT much. I can respect that. You just have higher standards than I do then, lol. I'd have to look far and wide to find a common, mainstream food item that I'd pass up for $67. Especially one as small as a McDonald's hamburger. I'd be thinking to myself 'I could buy myself a decent sushi dinner for $67', and down the hatch it'd go.
